4.3 Installation
The HBM 400PS rotating beacon comes completely assembled except for
installation of a customer-supplied AWG 12, S0-3 power cord.
4.3.1 Mounting
Open the front door on the cabinet. Inspect the interior to make sure all parts are
tight and have not been loosened in shipment. Close the door and tighten the
latches.
Figure 1
If the surface is not level, spacers or shims will be needed. Place a level on top
of the weather cap and use shims as necessary under the four corners to bring
the beacon to level. Install and tighten the mounting bolts, four each #1/2-13
bolts, length as required.
4.3.2 Wiring
See Figure 2 to locate the power connection point. The power cord enters the
beacon chassis through the hole in the bottom of the base, and attaches to the
white terminal block in the lower right corner.
Power
Terminal
Block
1. Unscrew the two door latches and open the chassis door.
2. Route the cable through the hole in the bottom of the chassis. Install a ½”
liquid-tight conduit fitting in the chassis hole.
3. Connect the power cord at the terminal strip as follows: Attach the black
wire (120 VAC) to the terminal marked ∅, the white wire (neutral) to the
terminal marked N, and the green wire (ground) to the terminal marked G.
The power connections for the heater are located on the same terminal block as
the main beacon power connections. Attach the black wire (120 VAC) to the
terminal marked ∅C, the white wire (neutral) to the terminal marked N, and the
green wire (ground) to the terminal marked G.
Interval Task
To adjust the beacon beam to a different angle, perform the following procedure:
1. Unlatch the 2 cover glass door latches, and open the door.
2. Locate the beam elevation label on the top inside edge of the head, near
the topmost edge of the reflector.
4. Loosen the #10-32 Phillips-head screw located at the top outside edge of
the head, directly above the beam elevation label. Do not loosen it more
than 2 turns.
5. The beam angle may now be adjusted by gently pressing on the top and
bottom edges of the reflector. Adjust the reflector until the edge of the
reflector indicates the desired elevation on the elevation label.
6. Tighten the #10-32 Phillips-head screw located at the top outside edge of
the head.
7. Close the cover glass door and latch the 2 door latches.
5.2.4 Lubrication
All moving parts are permanently lubricated and will not require further
attention.
6.2 Fuses
The HBM 400PS has a lamp fuse, and a motor fuse. The fuses are located on
the Control Panel, directly inside the door of the chassis.
This chart will help you to locate over 99% of beacon problems. Detailed repair
procedures are located in chapter 6 of this manual.
If you are still unable to solve the problem, call Hali-Brite at 800-553-6269.
